Tonight Community Board Seven, which covers Sunset Park, Greenwood, and Windsor Terrace, will host a forum on SROs and illegal housing conversions in Brooklyn. Several city agencies and local nonprofits will talk about how they deal with SROs and illegal housing conversions in the city, as well as answer questions from residents. It’s a good chance for Brooklynites to inquire about the rights of residents in these types of buildings, as well as the process of reporting illegal housing arrangements. The meeting is tonight, March 4, at 6:30 pm at the Community Board 7 office. That’s 4201 4th Avenue, with the entrance on 43rd Street. There will also be a Spanish translator present.
